Hello all,
I am currently designing a flanged heater, when doing the calculations of Appendix 41, I noticed that when I select bolts SA320-L7 I need more flange thickness than using SA320-L7M, although L7 has better strength.
My question is why the bending stress depends on bolts strength...
I also tried that but since we are talking about fabrics, the cross section changes drastically with small loads and the convertion cannot be made that easely.
I contacted the providers asking this but none replies.
This is the first time I have to work with this so i am a bit lost.
I know, but the providers do not specify the geometry. They give the test result according to the given standard (for example Can2-4.2-M77 Method 9.2) and if I use the geometry I have with the specified Strength (in psi) the resulting Strength in pounds is at least an order of magnitude lower...
Hello to everyone,
I hope this is the right forum to ask this question.
I have to buy a flexible connector (neoprene-coated fiberglass fabric). I was given the specification of tensile strength in pressure units [kPa] but providers give this strength in force units [N].
I believe it is because...
